Hi,
A minimum of 8 glasses of water must be drunk daily to remove the toxins from the body.
A regular application of lip balm will moisten the lips.
Butter application at night also helps to moisten the lips.
Applying lemon juice, once a week, lightens the shade of the lips as it carries bleaching property.
Vitamin C and E rich diet is apt for renewing the tissue that was damaged.
Eating strawberry is also a good remedy as it helps to lighten the shade of the lips.
Honey - a natural moisturizer- also proves beneficial. Honey can be mixed with baking soda - a natural bleaching agent – and the mixture must be applied to exfoliate the lips. It must be done once every 7-10 days.
Use lip gloss for lightening dark lips.

hello littlemohit,
fresh air, vitamins and iron are required for maintaining pinky red lips. also keep them away from any cheap lip balms or creams. everyday before going to bed, massage your lips with few drops of glycerin, lime juice and honey for 15 minutes.
take care.
